Dutch business graduates ‘lazy’

Dutch business studies and economics graduates expect to work 40.7 hours a week in their first job, almost the shortest working week in Europe, according to German research involving 39,000 students in 18 countries.


The EU average is around 44 hours. And 41% of Dutch graduates would turn down a job abroad, compared with a European average of 29%.
